Abstract:

An emergency kit for simultaneously equalizing the inflation pressure in the four tires of a motor vehicle and in the spare tire thereof. Four lengths of flexible tubing are interconnected by tee couplings. One end of three of such lengths of tubing is given a coupling for connection with the inflation valve of a tire whereas the other length of coupling has such a coupling at each end. A foot operable diaphragm pump is connected in one length of tubing. SU BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to kits for equalizing the pressure in and inflating the tires of a motor vehicle. More particularly the invention relates to a kit for simultaneously equalizing the pressure in all four tires and in the spare tire and for increasing the inflation tire in the four tires. Devices for equalizing the pressure in the tires of a motor vehicle and for transferring inflation air from a spare tire to one or more deflated tires of a motor vehicle have been known heretofore. However there has not been available, prior to this invention, a kit which incorporates in a unitary assembly components which operate simultaneously on all four mounted tires and on the spare tire so as to benefit from any excess air contained in any of such tires and to permit, in an emergency, equal increasing of the air pressure in the mounted tires.
